Coverslipper Leasing for Labs
Lease the coverslipper that fits your diagnostic workflow. Automate slide finishing—without tying up your budget.
What Is a Coverslipper?
A coverslipper automates the placement of glass coverslips on microscope slides after staining—protecting the specimen and preparing it for analysis. It’s a staple in histology and pathology labs to ensure consistency, clarity, and throughput. These systems improve slide quality and reduce human error in high-volume environments.
Why Lease a Coverslipper?
Manual coverslipping is labor-intensive and prone to air bubbles, misalignment, or adhesive errors. Automated coverslippers eliminate those issues—while boosting speed and reducing ergonomic strain. But systems with high-throughput capacity, multiple slide formats, and solvent compatibility can be expensive to purchase outright.
Leasing makes it easier to upgrade without upfront cost. Whether you're equipping a pathology core, diagnostic lab, or teaching facility, Excedr helps you access the automation your team needs—quickly and affordably.
Where Leasing a Coverslipper Adds Value
Coverslippers automate slide preparation, improving speed, consistency, and safety in high-throughput histology labs. But automated systems with solvent compatibility and stainer integration can carry a high upfront cost.
Leasing can be a smart choice when:
- You’re processing slides at scale or under tight deadlines—Boost speed without capital delays.
- You need solvent handling or stainer integration—Lease systems that fit your workflow.
- You want to preserve budget for staff or supplies—Improve efficiency without a large spend.
Whether expanding automation or replacing manual prep, leasing a coverslipper helps you scale—faster and smarter.
